So to be honest, this has been an extremely rough week for me.
Could I have made it a bit easier by my own actions? Well yes, I could have.
I know what helps me when life becomes overwhelming. Then why do I choose actions that don't move me through life's messes but cause me more.
Perhaps I need a list:
Do Don't
Pray more Eat more
Go for a walk Go to bed
Share with a friend Argue with a friend
Hug Punch
Read the Bible Watch Netflix
for hours for hours
Have hope Have fear
Solve what can be Stress over what can't be solved
Pray for others Rescue others
Keep perspective Imagine the worse
Pray more Fear more
Practice kindness Lash out
Blog Whine
This week has seen my son in crisis, me with 2 abscessed teeth, 1 extraction, 1 root canal, a nasty cold, lost cat, ridiculous argument with a close friend, scary fire near our Oak Creek cabin, and it is the last 2 weeks at my middle school.
This week friends have been loving and supportive, Ron and I are praying together for our son and family, dentists have really great drugs for pain, cold medicines work, my kitty is resourceful, my friend forgave my stupidness, fire is going away from our cabin, and there is now only 1 week left of middle school, half days. Finally, I just blogged again! God is faithful even when I am in a pity party.
In Him,

Romans 7:15 niv
15 I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do.
